Commander: Kenrith, the Returned King

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Kenrith, the Returned King leads a five-color voting/council deck that turns every decision into card advantage. There is no double-faced commander; the true hidden commander is Tivit, Seller of Secrets, who doubles the deck's core resource of votes while producing Clues and Treasures. Kenrith acts as the mana engine and recursion outlet, letting the deck convert treasure surplus into cards, +1/+1 counters, haste/trample, and graveyard reanimation. The deck aims to control vote parity with extra-vote creatures, grind value through council spells, and close either with Expropriate plus a big combat turn or by overwhelming board presence generated by Selvala's Stampede and resilient vote creatures.
